August 15, 2007, Houston, Texas - Mimix Broadband, Inc. introduces today two buffer amplifiers offered in standard RoHS compliant 3x3mm QFN plastic packages, making them easy to implement and handle in volume applications. These buffer amplifiers, identified as XB1007-QT and XB1008-QT, cover 4 to 11 GHz and 10 to 21 GHz, respectively. Both devices deliver +19 dBm P1dB compression point and +30 dBm OIP3. The XB1007-QT has 23 dB small signal gain, and the XB1008-QT has 18 dB small signal gain. Both are ideal for wireless communications applications such as point-to-point radio, SATCOM and VSAT applications.
